To the climate commitments as articulated in the European Green Deal and the Fit for 55 package are added additional demands in terms of self-sufficiency and resilience of European economies as emphasised by RePowerEU. Buildings play a crucial role in meeting the commitments; and public buildings have a special place among them. 

The Czech Republic's current low ambition in energy efficiency, the low pace and depth of renovations, and the low capacity of public bodies to respond to the challenges are disadvantages. Also in the Olomouc Region, the implementation of specific energy renovation projects has been declining in recent years, as well as their scale. However, the Olomouc Region has adopted a regional energy policy, started monitoring data and now wants to support the operators of public buildings of the Olomouc Region in the development and implementation of energy saving measures. 

Based on research into European best practice, a Living Lab will be set up with a team of experts in the technical, legal and financial aspects of renovation.

Start date: October 2024 - End date: October 2027
